Across from LaGuardia Airport is a small, public boat slip that anyone can use to launch a boat or a jet ski. I asked the guy in the photos if I could take his picture while he got ready to buzz out onto Flushing Bay. He said sure. It was late in the day.

I watched for about a half hour because that's how long it took them to get the jet ski and themselves ready to take off.

I had completely forgotten that I was there to shoot photos of airplanes coming in for a landing at LaGuardia.

Hi Mary, you are looking good here. Were you offered a ride in that little red jet ski? I am glad you found a red airplane for us. :-)For our 4th we had lunch in Pearland, Texas, with a couple of families visiting from Spain. We had been in their homes several times in the past.

Nice nautical treat on the watercraft. I hadn't considered fun in the water in either the East River/Bay or near LGA. Nice Northwest A319 on approach, stylish Jeep. Al are wonderful and eclectic RT pictures!

Those are really cool people - I don't know even how to ride a bicycle! Red is perfect for them - BOLD! Beautiful plane - You managed to get the American Flag perfectly on the plane! I miss flying - I like to be on a road!Thank you for posting my red lily - I am still jumping - made me very happy - it is a very happy thing for me. Thank you!

Very kewl shots! Love the red airplane tail and the jet ski brings back memories of my younger dayz. Thanks for including Molly with her red toy in today's post ... she LUVS attention ;--)Hugs and blessings,

I hope you had an awesome 4th of July! I really enjoyed the photos this week. I seem to run into occasions where I want to take pictures of people doing certain things, but I am always to chicken to actually do it! lol :)

I love it that you got so caught up in taking pictures of a secondary subject that you almost forgot why you were there!Great pics of the jet ski - I admit I've never been on one - and riding one isn't not on my bucket-list, either!My Ruby Tuesday post is up @ Purrchance To Dream this week.Cheers,mo
